English Literature.
On yesterday afternoon the students
of the Wheeling Female College, had the
pleasure of hearing Hon. G.. W. Atkinson
on the subject Of English Literature,
which he handled in his characteristic
manner. Though the time to which the
lectures are limited is short, he did not
fail to impress upon the minds of his hear
ers the facts around which cluster the
thoughts of the hour. The lecture was
introduced by an outline of the history of
the English Language. Then followed Q
condensed sketch Of the history of English
literature, the most prominent authors and
their works being presented. After n def
milton of genius the lecturer closed with
criticisms on Shakespeare and his works,
which showed that the speakers close
study of the subject had but increased his
admiration for the greatest of poets.

The tube works department of the River
side plant ia located near the northern
limit OF the COmpany's seventy acre tract,
at BenwOOd, and il the first department
one comes to in coming down from Wheel
ing. The piece of ground set apart
for the purpose measures eight acres
in extent, and is surrounded by 3
strong aud substantial picket fence
eight feet ia height. The middle of last
February saw the location Of the works a
pond of large extent. The nrsE Of August
found the immense buildings practically
completed, and much of the heavy machin-
cry in place, ready to commence the
manufacture of pipe. For quite a
period before the opening of
the current year, tns idea Of
q tube works had found Il p~ermsEeat
dwelling place in the brain of General
Manager Hearne. This idea rapidly took
on a specific aud tangible form, expert
ments were began, estimates made, and
about the first Of the YEA. negotiations
were opened with Mr.. 7. j. Bray, Eha
had built the Pittsburg Tube works, and
also with Mr.. Peter Boyd, his assistant,
and Ma. Collin HaddOek, his master me-
chanic. FhesS gentlemen arrived in
Wheeling about the midGE e January,
and in March, the large amount 81 sre-
liminary drawing having been completed,
work upon the foundations were CON-
menced. The first pipe was made August
18th, aud q week later the works went on
double turn. The buildings ae,cnging to
the works are six in number, and are q.
follows: First, the tube works o
where the actual manufacture of pipe is
carried On. Two OF IhsSe buildings are
SOx26O feet and the third 100x269 feet, the
three thus covering q piece OF ground 26O
feet square, all under the one roof. Ad-
joining these buildings on the west are the
machine shop, 40xS0 feet, tbs blacksmith
shop, 40xS0 feet, and q storage house S5x
$50 feet. These buildings are constructed
entirely of iron, and are thoroughly fire
proof.
The entrance to the grounds is through
q gate at the south east corner, next the
Office building. Here stands an octagonal
house, for the shelter Of tine time-keeper,
and by its windows the employees ale in
going u or coming from their work. The
check system IL in operation, each employ
being known by q number. The employe
gets anumbered check in the morning on
going TO work, deposits it with the time
keeper when he goes out at noon, receives
it again on coming back after dinner, and

During the past summer, and while the
large tube works addition was under way,
the Company found time to erect upon the
eastern side of its land, fronting on the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad, an Ornamen-
tai and commodious office building, in
which that portion of this executive staff
whose presence is required at the works
has recently been installed. Tbs edifce
is o frame Of two stories in height, and ia
a model of its kidd. Outside it is sur
rounded by a broad piazza, and from "a
little distance it looks like the country seat
of q Well-tO-dO gentleman. It contains
on the nrst floor the general
office, the vault aid pay window
of the paymaster, and the private oGices OF
the various departments Of the works, with
the addition of layatOry, closets, etc.
On the second hOOE gre the apart
mentS of the draughtsman, ths vault for
the storage of plans, records, etc, and
three comfortable bed rooms. The resi-
dent staff, to use a phrase especially ap-
plicable, are as follows: Clerk in charge of
the office, W. {. King, Jr.; Superintendent
of steel works, f. w. Wiles; Superintend-
ent OF tube works, L. j. Bray; superin-
tendent of plate mill, Thomas Murrin;
superintendent of furnaces, William Crock
ard; Draughtsman, II. J. Harkerath; f.
II. Williams, chemist, with Vim. Taylor
and Robert Devine Is assistants; p. W.
Greenwood, general tine keeper; Geo. B.
Mitchell, principal salesman, and irwin
Bowman, messenger. 1t will be observed
that in this list the President, Secretary

The Evening Gail, Of Key West, Fla,

claims is due to the policy Of protection,
says:
But let free trade or "tarif for revenue

which this growth OF manufacturing enter

sufficient to paralyze and pull down what 1t
has taken ten years to vivify and build up, aud
